he has not been put in a position to succeed AT ALL this season. he was on a line with mashinter and halpern and then got benched halfway through the game for something he didnt do. what do you want from him exactly?

I want him to hustle, play hard, keep his feet moving, shoot the puck, use his speed to his advantage, use his size to his advantage, play with a chip on his shoulder, hit someone, show aggression....should I continue?

Playing his linemates is a cop out. He has the tools, but he's afraid of being put in the, as JD would call it...the chateau bow wow....
